Life of students after cheltenham?

With college application deadlines closing soon, there has been a rise in conversations of college and the future of students after their attendance at Cheltenham High School.

At this point, many individuals stated that they were unsure of a college or career pattern.

CHS Senior, Anna Burdick plans on attending college but she is unsure of what major she intends on studying.

"As of right now, I'm undecided," Burdick said.

She proceeded to say that she was mostly certain in the major that she wanted to focus on for college, and has already applied to a few colleges.

Being unsure of the career that you wanna go in or what you want to pursue is frequently frowned upon by other students, families, which some people deem as unreasonable.

Though these are the cases for lots of application ready students, there are also rising numbers of students who do know what career and/or college that they want to pursue.

"I've been thinking about School of Visual Arts, that's the only school that's really been on my mind, and I do want to study something in film or cinematography."

Knowing what major you want to study can be extremely important, especially if you want to have classes that reflect the possibilities of where you'd like to go or what you'd like to do in the future.

Early college admissions are praised by colleges, counselors, schools, and even families in some cases.

A former CHS student, Sydney Flemming, says "I mostly applied early because I didn't wanna lose the spot, especially since I was looking for a specific program to attend."

Getting your college application in before the early application deadline is very helpful to college attendees who want to look like they prioritize the admission process for the admissions director, and Flemming's statement proves so.

In cases where the student may want to attend an ivy league or prominent school, using early admissions is usually the best way to go.

Another thing I've noticed when visiting the topic of college is the people who are unsure of their major, college, etc at all.

Think back to a time where you might've discussed career confusion with someone you know.

People tend to have all different sorts of opinions on the matter, but some seem to have more pressing arguments than others.

CHS Senior, Jewel Lear, says "It’s ok for people to not have a fully thought out plan for their future yet. There’s always time to change your mind, and everyone’s goals in life are different, so it’s good to keep an open mind."
